As it is very trendy, nowadays, to take a picture of your coffee.....here is my contribution.....in case I'm left out of the trend!!!!!
Spring in the Desert
Claret cup cactus is native to the desert areas of the American Southwest. It grows wild in Juniper Pinyon woodlands, creosote scrub and Joshua tree forests
On our holiday they had great cups with just the right handles. I know this is not an original idea, but I just wanted to do this for a long time. So indeed this is not very creative, yet I think the outcome is appealing to the eye.
The red background is made of a light shining through a bottle of lemonade.
Espresso, as long as it's decaf, I drink it every day, usually a latte in the morning. Have to admit it was an acquired taste, picked up in Italy.

My sister-in-law collects arty objects so it is always fun to visit their place and see what I find. Have a good Wednesday.
Also known as: Hedgehog Cactus, Mojave Mound Cactus, Kingcup Cactus, That Spiny Thing You’ll Regret Touching
This cactus is the prom queen of the desert—short, spiky, and radiant in red. The flowers look like someone dipped a shot glass in cherry Kool-Aid and dared it to grow on a porcupine.
It thrives in dry, rocky places where most plants say, “Nope,” and curl up to die. Not the Claret Cup. This one digs in, throws shade (literally none), and blooms like it’s starring in a spring fashion show for hummingbirds.
Why do I love it?
Because it’s tough, it’s gorgeous, and it only stabs you if you get too close, which is also how I feel about some relatives.
Couplet:
It blooms like a torch in the desert's embrace,
Just don't try to hug it—it'll scratch up your face.

For this week's theme I knew I wanted to include a piece from our rather large collection of custom pottery. Trouble was picking which piece and seeing them as a macro shot. In the end I picked my well used and favorite coffee mug. With my wife's new to-go mug as a background.
These pieces are beautiful hand thrown pottery from Archival Designs of Kansas City. (www.archivaldesignskc.com/portfolio/) Which just happens to be the studio of my wife's sister and her husband who do amazing work.

"You told me you don't love me
Over a cup of coffee
And I just have to look away
A million miles between us
Planets crash into dust
I just let it fade away..."
October 1st is International Coffee Day so, have a nice cup of coffee!
